1 -) Does Martinez v. Ryan / 566 U.S. 1 (2012) excuse a procedural
default in a Federal Habeas Corpus proceeding where Post
Conviction relief Counsel defaulted a claim in the initial
Post Conviction proceeding that Guilty Plea Counsel was
ineffective for misadvising Petitioner he faced 25 years to
life imprisonment if he proceeded to trial, where Petitioner
did not face a life sentence if convicted by a jury?
2.) If so, did the Lower Court commit error in finding that the
District Court did not abuse its discretion in denying
Petitioner 's Motion for relief from judgment pursuant to
Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 60(b)(6)?
3.) Did the Lower Court commit error in finding that Petitioner
did not make a substantial showing of the denial of a
Constitutional right to obtain a Certificate of Appeal-
ability (COA) on ineffective assistance of counsel claim?
